Great VVI song, but against a Bowie classic? Not a chance.

Classic Sludge trolling in the vein of "Bobby Dall is a better bass player than Geddy Lee".

Never heard Bowie's, but VVI's is a great song!

It's sweeter than the honey of love on my tongue.

I went with Bowie, my favourite song of his.

Damageplan actually has a GREAT Ashes to Ashes, with Jerry Cantrell on vocals! (Punisher soundtrack)

VVI song is excellent.

Bowie song is 1000 x better.

David Bowie may have (allegedly) sucked John Lennon's dick, but that's still not as ghey as liking Vinnie Vincent Invasion in 2024 :lol:

I mean, Bowie could have had Lennon's dick in his mouth* and still looked over at VV and gone: "Wow, THAT's gay."

*this assumes a living John Lennon overlapping with Vinnie's glam era, not Bowie sucking on his dong after death.

Never heard either. Voted Bowie. I've never heard a decent VVI song. Horrible band.

Pretty sure it was most likely Jagger, at least I heard Angie Bowie found them in bed together.
